Bug Description

Recently upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04 and now krb5-auth-dialog does not start any more. It throws a strange dbus error instead:

[znpnb195] ~ % lsb_release -d
Description: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
[znpnb195] ~ % krb5-auth-dialog -a
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NotSupported: Application does not handle command line arguments

Cheers,
Andreas

This is affecting me too on 14.04 x64 - after installing krb5-user and krb5-auth-dialog I get the same problem.

In case it's relevent (probably is?) I'm using gnome-flashback, not Unity.

Appears to be the same in unity for me, but still could be because something in gnome/dbus has changed as a result of flashback. Bug looks similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-multiload/+bug/1291680

I've downloaded this package source but struggling to buidl it, anyone else had any luck?

This is also fixed in 3.12.0 upstream as well as in 3.12.0-1 in Debian.
